As TO DEMOCRACY

Future Democratic campaigns in Texas
will not be marked by efforts to ostIacise
men for votes cast on the prohibition
amendment, save by those who may de-
sire to disrupt the Democratic party.
That much is settled now. There are
many and distinguished Democrats
who oppose the amendment, and,
whsteyer the doubt before, the
prohibition mass meeting at Fort Worth
demonstrated that there are many and
distinguished Democrats who favor the
amendment. No man noting the pres
ence in this city of SO many prom
inent Democrats can believe that
partisan fealty is involved
in this contest. Among the many repre-
sentative Democratic statesmen, orators
and workers present as participants were
eI Senator MsXey, Congressman Lanham,
Judges Henry, Piner and Potter, DR..
Swearingen, Messrs. Herndon, Bonner,
Swain, Duncan, Wynne, Poindexter, Fur
man, Matlock, Leggett, Crawford,
Bailey, Taylor Moore, Blair, Lightfoot,
Wood, Carter, Jarvis, VsnZsndt, Ward,
Beckham, Simkins, Stephens, Martin,
Walton, Kittrell, Wooten and others.
These distinguished names set opposite

CLEVELAND, OHIO, June 30.-A terrific
explosion occurred at Finlay, Ohio, yes
terday, the nitro-glycerine factory of f
n. Mccoy blowing up. There were nearly
1000 pounds exploded in the building

miles around to think an earthquake had
occurred. The factory was blown to
atoms, but fortunately nobody was
hurt. A hole fifteen feet deep
and fifty feet across the top was made in
the ground Many trees were blown
down. An acre or more of woodland is
devastated snd for great distance from
the site of the factory the bark was torn

The secret of Good Manners.

The secret of good manners is to forget
ones own self altogether. The people of
really fine breeding are the ones who never
think of themselves, but only of the
pleasure they can give to OILERS. No adorn-
ment of beauty, or learning, or accomplish
ments, goes SO far in its power to attract as
the one gift of sympathy.
In all French history no woman had
stronger fascination for whoever came with
in her reach than Madam Recamier. She
was called beautiful; but her portraits
prove that her beauty WAS not TO be COM
pared with that of many less charming
womon. And even when every attraction
of person bad long passed away, and ehc
was an old, old woman, her sway over the
hearts of others was as powerful as ever.
What was her secret?
1t was this one thing solely-her gen.
1ine and unaffected interest in the good
and i'll fortunes of her friends. Authors
came to her and read ner their books:
painters came to her with their pictures;
statesmen with their projects. She WAS
sweet, simply and uncorsciously, as rose
is sweet. She really cared for the happi-
ness and success of others. and they felt
the genuineness of her sympathy. 1t sur
rounded her with immortal charm.
Let any girl try Madam Recamier's ex-
pertinent. Let her go into society think
ing nothing of the admiration she may
win but every thing of the happiness she
can confer. 1t matters little whether her
face is beautiful, or her toilette costly. Be-
fore the end of three months she will be a
happy girl herself; for the world likes
sunshine and sympathy, and turns to item
rs the flowers bask in the sun of June.

Wishing and willing.

Wishing won't do much for anybody In
his world. There are great number of
iireamers and Missionaries, people who put
On the wishing cap" and desire all sorts
of nice things to come to them. They ex-
pect gold and all nice things to drop into
their lap. But they are mistaken. Wish
ing won't do much good for any one. The
only way to get anything is not to sigh for
it with a wish, but to work for it with q
will. That is the way, and the only way
The working man knows that. He knows
that wishes won't manufacture daily bread
for him. He goes out to work with q stout
heart, and earns days wages with days
labor scholar does not expect to excel
and get the highest prize without intense
toll. You must work with will if you
would get anything worth having. But it
is astonishing what an earnest Will can do
Poor boys have become rich men. 1gnor-
ant boys have become wise men. Obscure
boys who were known only in village,
have come out in the eye Of the world, and
been known far and wide as distinguished
men. They might always have remained
il the quiet village, but for this WILL which,
bore them right out of it into the wide
world atmosphere.
I'll tell you a story of one who made
name for himself, and gained great renown
and great possessions by the simple force
OF MS cnar;tcter.. lie was u1llSent, anu tlt
hand of the diiigent maketh r'ch; he wai
energetic, and energy is like an express
train it goes ahead. This boys ancestors
were rich and honored, but they lost their
inheritance and became poor. When the
boy knew this he was sad, and one day u,
he wandered alone over the broad lands CT
his forefathers, he resolved that he wouli
work and struggle with all his might to
buy them back again. He didn't sigh and
shed tears, and say, "Oh, how wish that
castle We're once more mine W No, he
didn't do that, because he knew that tears
of regret would not help him in the least.
He had his pleasant dreams, as have told
you, but he set himself to work. He brood
Ell over his vision, and it gave strength to
his brain, his will, his hand. He knew
tiiateverything depended on himself, and on
himself he relied He went abroad to the
East Indies, and he himself tells Us that

country, without money, without friends.
And how did he get on? What was the
result? He began life rs q hunttie.ele.;s

Colorado Cattle.

Within one hundred square miles Of Chy-
enne, Wyoming Territory, are herds rang
ing from 1000 to $4,000 head of cattle.
Their average value is stated to he $40 per
head. In this territory the losses among
cattle from all causes are only put down at
81 per cent per annum. In Texas and
other districts the losses are estimated from
5 to 10 per cent. A herd of 10000 cattle
should annually produce from 1900 to 1000
head of fat stock of these 20 per cent will
be cows, the rest three and half and four
year-old steers, with value of S25 to $50.
The cost of raising such bullock, includ-
ing losses and all expenses, cosld not be
more than $40. The cost of shipping"
cattle by rail from Cheyenne to Chicago is
$3.50, including freight, feeding, attendance
and commission. Arriving at Chicago,
they are generally sold in the market at SO
much per one hundred pounds live weight.
A few may be disposed of at stores, bnt
most ofthem are killed in the great slaueh-

COLUMBUS, o., Dec. 25.-The fol
lowing has been received here:
Mr.. VERNON, O., Dec. %, 1887.
TO the Wool-growers of the United
States:
The sentiment favoring free trade
in this country has been augmented
TO the extent of the Presidents infiu-
ence. In announcing his sympathy
with those who do not encourage
American industries and domestic
labor, the Executive has emphasized
his contempt for your industry by
proposing the repeal of all duties on
imported woods. You number about
100000 voters and give employ
ment to about 100000 more, and
every State and nearly every county
in each State of the United Statcs
has fiocks and flock.masters. Your
flocks generally are small, your
wealth limited and your locations SO
scattered as to- render organization
and united action difficult.
Once the producers of 300,000,Oo0
pounds of wool annually, valued at
about sloo,ooo,ooo, you have seen
the unfriendly Legislation of 1888,
check your growth and actually re-
duce your flocks in number and your
annual clip in qaantity to the extent
of 10 per cent. These results fol
lowed that small reduction of protect
i've duties. Now the President propos-
es their abolition SO that South Amer
lea and Australia, with other foreign
nations, can supply the consumption
of the United States spindles and
looms.
The officers of your national So
ciety desires to organize resistance
to this cruel attempt in order to Sc
cure it's defeat by active consolIdat-
I'd resistance. / advise that you pc
ti,ion Congress freely from all parts
Of the country, Send letters TO the
| Congressman from every district;
have each association of wool grow
ers, State, county, township or town,
pass and forward appropriate resolu-
tions. Incite the grangers or asso-
| Citations of husbandmen to unite
their voices with yours in urging
Congress to promote the welfare Of
agriculture.
Enfranchiscd freemen may obtain
justice and avoid oppression by max
ing those in authority understand
their wants. If you have not large
consolidated wealth you have votes,
Exercise wisely the power which this
privilege gives. The founders of
our republic placed in the hands OF
its people the power to correct the
errors of those who make or admin.
lister our laws without insurrect,on
or violence. The Executive has
been misinformed. Remove this de
ception aud let him and the nation
know that you will not submit to
the proposed injustice without res
olute struggle. (Signed) c. DRLANo
President of the National Wool
growers Association.
